Did you know you can enter FY24 AP Payments after July 1, 2024 (based on district timelines)?

Starting July 1, 2024 the system will default to 2025 {2024/2025}, but you can change it to 2024 {2023/2024} to create a payment for FY24. The system will automatically do the necessary journal entries between the fiscal years. Be sure to create separate payment batches for each Fiscal Year.

• System will automatically create the Journal Entries for each year
  
  • FY24: Debit Exp Obj Code/Credit 9529 {Acct Payable Setup Current Year}
    
    • 9529 ending balance will roll to 9510 beginning balance when beginning balances are posted

Are your Benefits set up to annualize? If your district is making manual adjustments to True-Up for the Summer Premium/s then the answer is no.

Example: Benefits are not Annualized

• The system uses a simple calculation each month to determine the Summer Bucket
  
  • Monthly Premium divided by number of Pay Cycles
  • Summer Bucket does not equal Previous July Premium or Future July Premium
  • Manual Adjustment will need to be done to true-up

Example: Benefits are Annualized

• System uses an Annualization calculation to determine the Summer Bucket
  
  • System setup determines which summer premiums are being paid - Prior or Future
  • Premium/s are divided by Pay Cycles
  • Summer Bucket will equal to Prior July Premium or Future July Premium (depending on setup)
